Old wives tales gender prediction: just for fun!

Just a light hearted thread. I am only 7 weeks so I thought I'd to this for my previous pregnancy which was my beautiful DS, just to see what the results show.

Old Wives Tale #1: Heart Rate If the baby’s heart rate is above 140 bpm, it is said that the baby will be a girl. If it is under 140 bpm, then it will be a boy. I remember it being 136 BMP at one point Prediction outcome: BOY

Old Wives Tale #2: Shape of Belly If you are carrying high with a big, round belly, you are having a girl. If you are carrying low with a smaller belly that sticks straight out, it’s a boy. (I definitely carried low and it stuck straight out) Prediction outcome: BOY

Old Wives Tale #3: Ring Test Using a string, hang your wedding ring over your pregnant belly. You are having a girl if the ring swings back and forth and it’s a boy if it swings in a circle. (my mum wanted to try this test and it swung back and forth) Prediction outcome: GIRL

Old Wives Tale #4: Acne If you have acne while pregnant, it’s a girl. It’s thought that acne during pregnancy is caused by the extra hormones. Prediction outcome: BOY

Old Wives Tale #5: Cravings People believe that if you are craving salty foods while pregnant, you can count on having a boy. If you crave sweets, fruit, and orange juice, you are having a little girl. Prediction outcome: BOY

Old Wives Tale #6: Skin under Left Eye The eye test is when a “V” or “branches” appear when you pull down the skin under your left eye. If you see a “V” or “branches” in the white part, you’re having a girl. I have a “V”, so one more point for a girl. Prediction outcome: INCONCLUSIVE

Old Wives Tale #7: Time of Conception The person that is most aggressive in bed at the time of conception is the opposite of what the baby will be. (Too long ago to remember)Prediction outcome: INCONCLUSIVE

Old Wives Tale #8: Legs If your legs get really big, you’re having a boy. If your legs stay in shape and lean, it’s a girl. I think it’s too early for me to tell on this one. Prediction outcome: GIRL

Old Wives Tale #9: Moodiness and a Little Pecker (this one is odd, but funny) If you are really moody, you are having a girl since you have another extra girl hormones in you. Your pregnancy will make you smile and be more happy if you are having a boy because there’s a little penis inside you.Prediction outcome: GIRL
